The diesel-electric 40-foot
buses, similar to a large and growing fleet of hybrid buses in service
in New York City, promise significant emissions reductions and fuel
savings compared to standard diesel buses, and also outperform
conventionally powered vehicles. This feature saves energy
and significantly reduces brake wear, reducing the frequency
and cost of brake maintenance .
